## Description
An unexpected error occurred while processing the request. The server was unable to complete the operation.

## Response Example
```json
{
  "type": "https://docs.kordiam.app/docs/errors/internal-error",
  "title": "Internal Server Error",
  "status": 500,
  "detail": "Unexpected application error. Please contact support at support@kordiam.io and include the traceId for faster resolution.",
  "instance": "/api/v2/elements/42",
  "traceId": "abc-123-def"
}
```

## Common Causes
- An unexpected server-side error occurred that is not caused by the request itself.

## How to Fix
1. Retry the request after a short delay -- the issue may be transient.
2. If the error persists, contact support and include the `traceId` value from the response body so support can investigate.
